Some would say that academics and Buddhism or any religion for that matter, can’t go together. However, Robert Wright successfully made correlations between Buddhists psychology and modern evolutionary psychology by asking questions about meditation and trying to find out how it “works”. What is different about this course that ranks 7th in our list of most popular Coursera courses in 2016, is that you can’t earn a certificate if you decide to enroll it. But, what you can is to access to all readings, videos, and graded assignments for free. Enroll now for the upcoming session that starts on April 17.
